Chapter 5: Who the hell is "He"?
A knock on a door. Someone I've never seen before.

His was taller than me and more muscular.

Raven shoulder length hair in a pony tail.

Piercing blue eyes and a light stable on his chin.

If I was into men...
This guy would be my type.

"Come in"
I uttered in a confident voice and gestured for him to sit down.

"I don't know you
and I'm the one who does the hiring in my company."

I said addressing the elephant in the room.

I can see how he got pass security, his three piece silver suit looked amazing.

So does his hair and he smells like aqua and forest all at once.

"My sister works here, I thought I would come see where she worked."

Said the gentleman in a deep dreamy voice.

Who is he trying to seduce with that tone of voice?

It can't be me!

"I'm Eastern Halls, Venice Halls' older brother."

Said Eastern
as he reached his hand forward prompting me to shake his hands.

Damn this is a real man's hands! Big, rough, hard and warm.

I shook his hand as I smiled after knowing his Venny's brother.

Venny is reliable and sweet. Maybe so is he.

"I'm Nicolas,
welcome to my company,
I hope Venny gave you a tour."

I said as I studied his face.
What a good looking man.

He looks like trouble and bad news in the worse way.

Like those people you would hire to make people magically "disappear ".

This guy lives at the gym.
His shirt is tight in the right places.

A distraction, a temptation for every female employee.

I bet they are asking Venny for his number.

SHE BETTER NOT GIVE THEM!

Wait a second.
Why do I care?

"Your company is beautiful inside out,
I expected an old man.
You look like you younger than me by atleast 5 years and I'm 30.
Daddy gave you his company?"

Asked Eastern, his deep voice dripping with sarcasm as his face looked all smug.

This prick.
Who is he talking to?

"Wait... Are you talking to me?"

I asked,
just to be sure that I heard him right.

"No I'm talking to the Glass window behind you or your ghost form in that chair!
Who else do you see in this room?"

Said Eastern,
smiling like he did not just insult me to my face.

Vinny walked in just in time.

"Vinny take this idiot out of my office!
and make sure you never invite him again."

I said as I went back to work.

"I apologize,
I didn't think my new boyfriend lacked a sense of humor."

Said Eastern, shocking me.

"Who is your boyfriend?
Venny... you better get your brother!"

I said vibrating with sudden anger.

"Eastern think his the funniest guy on the planet,
please don't listen to him."

Said Venny as she pulled him to the door.

"Venice you better get your hands off me. I didn't even ask Nicolas out for drinks."

Said Eastern. Refusing to budge even by inches.

This time I stopped working to properly look at him.

"You want a guys night?"
I asked not understanding what he meant.

"No I want a date!"
Said Eastern like he didn't just utter what he just did.

I laughed so hard that tears filled my eyes.

Okay it's his joke right. I'll play along.

"Okay.
Tonight pick me up at 8. Now get the fuck out my building. All my employees are restless because of you.
LADIES BETTER GET BACK TO WORK!
I DON'T PAY Y'ALL TO LOOK PRETTY!"

I screamed the last part before I could control myself.

A unity "Sorry Sir" was heard before they ran back to their desk.

Who could blame them this idiot was handsome pretty,
A rare combination in a man.

"See you tonight Nicolas, I promise you won't regret your decision.
Venice you going to ruin my suit, can you stop pulling me!
Fine I'm going!
Why you looking at me like you want to kill me?
I thought you were Lesbian?"

I heard before the door closed behind the both of them.
